Emotional Abuse

Does your partner exert control over you by:

• Calling you names, insulting you or continually criticizing you;
• Trying to isolate you from family or friends;
• Acting jealous, mistrustful, or possessive or even accusing you of cheating;
• Demanding to know where you are every minute;
• Withholding affection as a way of punishment;
• Threatening to hurt you, your family or your pets;
• Humiliating you;
• Blaming you for the abuse;
• Cheating on you and then blaming you for his or her behavior;
• Trying to control what you wear;
• Telling you that you are lucky to be with a person like them and you will never find anyone better?

If any of these behaviors sounds familiar you could be in an emotional abusive relationship.
